Scope and Content: The Special Commission on Probate and Family Court Procedures was established by Governor Edward King to research and analyze the procedures of the probate court in cases concerning divorce, family violence, and child custody.  Administrative files were created during this process and provided background data for the commission’s report to the governor on procedures in Massachusetts and other states, legislation, and innovative programs, and for its outreach to the community concerning the issues of family violence and the complexities of family law.
